Chapter 468: 114: Easily resolved, special person 2

A ten-year contract?

The secretary was initially stunned, but then understood Zhang Xianxian’s intention.

It must be said.

The young lady’s move was really clever!

"Okay," the secretary nodded.

After the secretary left, Zhang Xianxian took out her mobile phone and dialed a number.

Soon, the call was answered on the other end.

Zhang Xianxian’s voice immediately became extra gentle, "Hello, is this Director Zhang? I’m Zhang Xianxian from Qing City..."

Cutting off raw materials was only the first step.

Her second step was to directly sever Beauty Chant’s development path.

Zhang Xianxian spoke at length, and the other side responded with a laugh, "Rest assured, Miss Zhang, as long as I don’t sign, no one will grant Beauty Chant any land."

Zhang Youcai might not have held a high position, but he was in charge of reviewing investment in City C.

Both he and Zhang Xianxian shared the Zhang surname, and with the Zhang Family being Qing City’s premier family, if he could assist Zhang Xianxian, the Zhang Family would surely reward him handsomely.

Man dies for wealth, as the bird dies for food; this saying was no joke.

"Then, thank you, Director Zhang," Zhang Xianxian said in her gentle tone.

Zhang Youcai spoke with a laugh, "Miss Zhang, talking like this makes you sound like an outsider; we’re all family here."

Due to Zhang Xianxian’s aggressive acquisition, it wasn’t long before the procurement department dialed Lin Guixiang to inform her that their supplier had suddenly breached the contract and wouldn’t provide raw materials.

Hearing the news.

Lin Guixiang also had a headache and immediately contacted a routinely cooperative supplier, "President Li, I’m Lin Guixiang. I just received a call from the procurement department; they mentioned there is an issue on your end, is that correct? Or is it some kind of misunderstanding?"

"It’s neither an issue nor a misunderstanding; I simply no longer wish to collaborate with you," replied President Li’s cold voice over the phone.

Upon hearing this, Lin Guixiang frowned slightly, "President Li, we have a signed contract. You can’t just terminate it like this; how are we supposed to do business?"

President Li responded with a laugh, "I’m truly sorry, President Lin, but I’m willing to compensate the penalty for breach of contract as per the agreement! As for how you do business, that’s your concern and has nothing to do with me."

Who was Lin Guixiang to contest?

Those who were now working with them were none other than the Zhang Group.

After saying this, President Li hung up the phone.

Looking at the disconnected call, Lin Guixiang’s face was full of worry.

Beauty Chant already had insufficient daily stock, and with President Li being the largest supplier, the sudden stock shortage left them with nowhere to turn for raw materials. This would directly impact Beauty Chant’s reputation.

After all, they had already promised the clients who were queued up that the products would be shipped to them the day after tomorrow!

Seeing her hurrying downstairs, Zhao Cuinong curiously asked, "Big sister, what happened? Why are you in such a rush?"

Lin Guixiang looked at Zhao Cuinong, "President Li, the supplier, suddenly won’t supply us anymore."

What?!

Upon hearing this, Zhao Cuinong was also flabbergasted and cursed, "Is this Li character insane? Just cut off the supply like that, what are we supposed to do?"

Having said that, Zhao Cuinong slowly calmed down, picked up the car keys from the table, and continued, "Let’s do this, big sister. We can drive over and talk to him; there’s no need for things to get this heated."

Despite the cursing, they still needed to discuss; they couldn’t gamble with the future of Beauty Chant.

"Okay," Lin Guixiang nodded slightly and followed in Zhao Cuinong’s footsteps.

President Li’s herbal factory was nearby.

The drive took less than an hour to reach.

Lin Guixiang and Zhao Cuinong arrived at President Li’s office.

At that moment.

President Li was sitting at his desk, legs crossed leisurely as he sipped tea and hummed a tune.

After all, he was about to cooperate with the most powerful enterprise in Qing City, and they were also willing to repurchase his products at double the price. How could he not be happy?

Seeing Lin Guixiang and Zhao Cuinong approaching, President Li barely lifted his head to glance at them, with an impatient tone, "President Lin, President Zhao, I’ve already made myself clear on the phone; we are willing to pay the penalty for breach of contract, so why have you still come looking?"

"President Li, let’s discuss this calmly. Your sudden cutting off supply is like cutting off our lifeline, isn’t it?" Zhao Cuinong tried to suppress the anger in her heart and said with a smile.

President Li looked up at Zhao Cuinong, "President Zhao, you’re overstating things. It’s not like I’m the only one who sells herbal materials in Qing City. I just don’t want to continue our cooperation, that’s all. How does that equate to cutting off your lifeline? If I don’t work with you, you can always find someone else!!"

Find another herbal supplier?

Had it been so easy to find another herbal supplier, Lin Guixiang and Zhao Cuinong wouldn’t have been so anxious.

Many of Beauty Chant’s skincare product formulas utilized plants that were rare on the market, the kind that farmers wouldn’t cultivate extensively. Therefore, to secure a long-term supplier, they signed a ten-year contract with President Li. He contracted land to extensively cultivate lotus, gardenia, rhodiola, and other plants required, then supplied them to Beauty Chant.
